Cleverley is utter dog shit its unbelievable that he is a regular in your team and even more unbelievable is that he'll probably go to Brazil because he plays for you and not because he is good at the expense of probably Lallana or Henderson it'll be Cleverley!!!!!
I actually like Welbeck he reminds me so much of Heskey - and that is not a criticism because Heskey was awesome for us for a couple of years and Welbeck shares some of those attributes and is probably technically more adept. But comparisons to Sturridge is completely bonkers. Welbeck would be in my England team though because he offers to the team a lot. Like Heskey did.....for a couple of years at least.
I'd say you need a centre back, a left back and two central midfielders in the summer.
Still this season has been going one way then another so CL hopes are yet dead for you but it is on life support (unless you win the damned thing
)

Man Utd now need 10 wins from 14 just to hit 70 points. By contrast we only need 8 from 15 to hit 70. Most seem to reckon it will be around 74pts needed to be sure of fourth.
Basically they'll need to win 11 from those 14 to be in with chance of 4th. So that is title winning form that they'll need and haven't yet shown under Moyes. Say they lose at Arsenal, at Everton and at home to Man C (they most difficult remaining fixtures). This means they have to beat us at home, West Ham away, WBA away, Newcastle away and Southampton away, among others. Not impossible of course but it's looking bleak.

Meh be lucky to get 6th. Need to smash the CL, but we will likely get knocked out by olympiakos. Thinking of investing in a cryogenic freezing unit until september.

Time for a controversial opinion.... I don't truly understand the Mata deal. I think they were trying to bring him on as a #10 technical player, but they honestly have that in Kagawa..... and there's Rooney too..... I mean Mata's good, but he wasn't really a #10 during his Valencia days. That was Silva when he was there. I guess he played #10 at Chelsea pretty ok though. I don't understand why people expected Mata to be a saint (I'm looking at your r/reddevils)

Mata got another assist though. They'll make some transfers in the summer and be back much stronger.

Olympiacos sold their best players so I doubt it. You'll reach the last 8 comfortably, however even luck won't save you there I reckon. The teams you could possibly face afterwards are all a class above you as of this moment.

Never say never as they say. Just look at Chelsea - although Chelsea had a defence and had Drogba.
